We are interviewing the authors of our July/August edition of FrontLine magazine. The theme of that issue was "God, the Christian, and Human Government."

A few weeks ago I had the chance to sit down with my friend Gordon Dickson, who wrote an article called, "Heaven’s Citizens Under Human Government"

In this article, Gordon talks about the place of government in human society and the biblical perspective we ought to have towards government. In our conversation, we spent a lot of time discussing these ideas in more detail.

This topic is very wide ranging. We really could have said more, and I think we said a lot in our conversation. I hope you find it helpful as you think about this subject with us.

Gordon mentioned a couple of resources that have informed his thinking on the subject, I will include them in the show notes.

Paying subscribers can read Gordon’s article here: Heaven’s Citizens Under Human Government (substack.com)

(Preview available for all.)

Resources mentioned in the conversation:

* The Law — Frédéric Bastiat

* Second Treatise of Government — John Locke
